Brady

I was really hoping to give Mason a middle name to honor my brother Brady. Mason Allen Tartini. I thought it was perfect, because I thought his middle name would flow best if it started with a vowel. Devin had only one request, and he thought, since Mason ends with an "N", his middle name shouldn't. So, we will have a Mason Andrew Tartini instead. But let me tell you more about Brady. Growing up, I always viewed Brady as a baby; I always thought he needed protecting and sheltering. After spending time away at college, and then returning to Spokane while Devin was in BMT, I could see the stark difference in my little, baby brother. He is an independent thinker, he's smarter than just about anyone I know, and he can definitely hold his own. He is just so nice, funny, and suave. He started dating his first girlfriend while I was home, and he was such a gentlemen. He was ASB president, he was active in school events and sports, and he was so good with Courtney. He makes me proud to have him as a brother, so although Mason won't be named after him, I certainly hope he turns out as nice, well rounded, and debonair as him. I love you Brady :)
